NEW SEA
TERROR
A NEW STYLE OF TORPEDO BOAT, TO BE HANDLED BY TWO
MEN, WHO ARE TO JUMP OVER BOARD AT THE LAST AND
SEND IT DASHING aGAINST THE ENEMY BOAT TO BE DE-
sTDnvpn itspi p
NEW YORK, July 15. Surpassing mine, torpedo, submarine and giant
projectile in destructive power, it is asserted, a new engine for dealing
wholesale death in naval warfare is under construction in miniature in this
city. This newest contrivance for the destruction of battleships and cruisers
is nothing more nor less than a high-speed torpedo boat, which is itself a
torpedo, the bow being filled with high explosives in quantities sufficient to
blow the bottom out of the biggest war ship afloat. It is planned that the
torpedo boat, in the destruction of hostile craft against which its deadly
prow is directed, also shall immolate itself. At no time, -however, can the
loss to. the attacking force be greater than two men, and those two will
have a fighting chance to escape.
When the torpedo boat, which is a torpedo, has dashed to a point near,
enough to its steel-clad prey to give assurance that it cannot possibly miss
the mark the crew of two brave men will lock the steering gear and, with
life belts about them, leap overboard leaving the death-dealing engine of
war to rush in alone at a terrific speed and blow itself and the ship of the
enemy to fragments.
Francis Herreshoff, a nephew of Captain Nat Herreshoff, the celebrated
ihiTTder of the defenders of the America's cup, is the inventor of this new
annihilator. He contends that by the use of human directing agency up to
a point within a few hundred feet of the enemy's ship the uncertainty that
attends the use of a torpedo will be done away with and naval warfare will
have to be conducted on new lines.
The boat will be made of aluminum and built in sections, so several of
them may be carried on any large war ship, ready for use in time fo emer
gency. It will require only a little while to bolt the sections of one of these
destroyers together and send it dashing toward an enemy. The boats will
be equipped with electric motors and other mechanical appliances which will
give to them a maximum speed between twenty and thirty knots. There
will be no smoke to call attention to them. The automobile principle of loco
motion will be applied.

MILES TO PARKER.
ESOPUS, New York, July 15. Judge Parker received a letter today from
General Nelson A. Miles. The entire letter is in General Miles' own hand
writing and is as follows:
"St. Louis, July 10, 1904.
"Hon. Alton B. Parker, Esopus, N. Y.
"Dear Sir: Safety for the good ship -of state is of the first importance.
"At a time when a material crisis is pending, when democratic Institutions
are in peril, when great evils should be eradicated, when Important political
questions must be decided, it is fortunate that the democratic party have
given to the country a candidate for President in whom that great council
of representative men have every confidence, and we have the best of reasons
for believing that that confidence will be confirmed by the Intelligent patri
otic people of the country.
"We all do know that the instincts and training of the judge are to hold
In sacred regard the Constitution and the faithful interpretation and execu
tion of the laws. Hence we believe that under your administration its law
will be administered with fidelity and integrity. I believe you will be elect
ed and thereby have an opportunity of rendering our country a service of
Immeasurable value, that will redound to the honor of the democratic party,
and the glory of the republic.
"I have the honor to remain, very truly yours,
"NELSON A. MILES."
